My Three Day Challenge!


I'm so psyched!

Dropped by the supermarket to stock up on what I'll need for the next few days.
Missed out mangoes and bananas though... which is bad since those 2 are pretty much the staples of the Green Smoothie.

I managed however to get:
  • Apples
  • Pears
  • Rose apples
  • Dragon Fruit
  • Black Grapes
  • Spinach
  • Assorted lettuces
  • Japanese cucumbers
  • Carrots

And also the essential prep tools:
  • Peeler
  • Knives (2 different sizes)
  • Knives stand
  • Mixing bowl (especially handy since my sink is smaller than the bowl!)
  • Draining bowl
  • Vege soap
  • Large bottles for smoothies
  • Some glasses
  • Tupperwares for easy storage

Phew!


So am like so totally psyched for my first taste of delicious healthy Green Smoothie tomorrow.
Will be skipping dinner so I'll have a nice half day fast by the time I get to breakfast tomorrow, which means the smoothie will be a welcome treat!

Now there's all the fruit and vege prep to do tonight - washing, cutting, storing.
Prep is important so I won't be late for work - just wake up, place stuff in blender, drink and go!


How the three day Green Smoothie Challenge goes is like this (in case u wanna join me a day or two later):
Get all ingredients and prep tools as aforementioned.
Wash, cut, store!
Blend!
Recipes are easy to find - just google Green Smoothie recipes.
And if ur too lazy, just blend any 2 to 3 kinds of fruits and veges in a 60:40 ratio.
Add some ice or water if you don't like it too thick.
Drink/eat as many green smoothies as you possibly can throughout the day (except not too near bedtime, or else guarantee cannot sleep).

Does this mean no cooked food?
Not unless you don't wanna eat cooked food.

The green smoothies will basically infuse your body with SO much good stuff....
I'm planning to only eat 1 cooked meal per day - lunch.
And that too will be light.
If possible, I might just eliminate all cooked food for the 3 days and go pure raw with salads and smoothies!


Watch out world!
